No. Hardware support in one driver should never be affected by config options in another drivers. Also I really think there shouldn't be one single driver for all the hardware as outlined by intel people in this thread. I'd say add a new e1000e driver for all the pci-e hardware and have a temporary config option to disable those device already supported by the existing e1000 driver. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
